Monument

# A TV experiment with super celebrities.
Documentary   Drama
πŸ“œ Overview: In the fall of 1967, intermedia artists Ture SjΓΆlander and Lars Weck collaborated with Bengt Modin, video engineer of the Swedish Broadcasting Corporation in Stockholm, to produce an experimental program called Monument. It was broadcast in January, 1968, and subsequently has been seen throughout Europe, Asia, and the United States. Apart from the technical aspect of the project, their intention was to develop a widened consciousness of the communi - cative process inherent in visual images. They selected as source material the "monuments" of world cultureβ€” images of famous persons and paintings.
